25 has just gone stable. It *should* run on i586 (Athlon-XP, pentium-2) and you will notice there are far less errors logged due to being compiled against true slackware dependencies. (as with the other chromium-24.xxxx that I compiled at ibiblio and mirrors). I'll upload it soon, but as usual, ibiblio is giving troubles. EDIT: uploaded, see below

This is an interesting comment. Having swap, you've done a good thing is protecting that your system wouldn't quickly lock as you increase system workload. But I am curious because of an observation I've made about 32bit PUPs I/O subsystem usage when running "pfix=RAM".

If you turn off SWAP, via

Code:

swapoff /dev/...

could you notice any difference in behavior of the P3 PC? Just curious of what you might observe.

You lose the ability to change themes though, but the icon theme is close to jemimah's frisbee original, except they are in svg format.

Also, I fixed a bug with my IP address showing in the tooltip. It now shows correctly if you connect over ppp. (direct modem). The icon *should change to a mobile phone if you are connected by a mobile phone or 3g modem or to an old phone if connected by analog modem. This is taken care of by a script by rerwin. If connected by ethernet you get blinking screens or by wireless you get the antenna.

This is for testing before .. This is designed to be NooB friendly ... Reports please.

no adverse behavior to report. Used a permanent system to download PET to USB.

Booted pristine, set hostname in FirstRUN, installed PET from USB, setup Frisbee. Nothing abnormal has occurred. All information is current and accurate. And IP is stable without issues.

Is this the kind of report you wanted?

3 Different Puppy Search Enginesor use DogPile

An example of a problem that seems to be common with USB flash drive installs. Not finding the Puppy main sfs file on bootup. I am seeing reports of this, more and more, dealing with Slacko and Precise.
As rcrsn51 points out.

This may be a timing issue. Other distros, like Fatdog, have a "waitusb" option to handle the problem.
